Welcome to the Mountain Valor Podcast! Our nonprofit empowers veterans and their families across Southwest Virginia by providing them with the tools, resources and connections they need to thrive. This podcast is one of the ways we have to reach more folks, and find the answers to more questions. This episode is a very quick overview of some of the education benefits for veterans and their families. We will offer in depth episodes on each of these, and interviews with folks how have used them.
